This camcorder’s Automatic Colour Temperature system senses

 

 

 

 

the colour temperature of the ambient lighting for automatic

 

 

 

: FINE

 

 

 

white balance adjustment. However, precise colour adjustment

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

: CLOUD

is not possible under the following conditions:

 

 

 

 

• When an object is in various shades of the same colour.

 

 

 

: HALOGEN

 

 

 

• When a predominantly red or brown object is being shot outdoors.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MWB

In these cases, use the camcorder’s built-in preset filters for

 

 

 

 

white balance adjustment (pg. 32, 33).

D. ZOOM

 

ON

Allows you to use the Digital Zoom. By digitally processing and

 

 

 

 

magnifying images, zooming is possible from 16 times (the optical

 

 

 

 

zoom limit), to a maximum of 320 times (GR-AXM405)/50 times

ON

 

 

 

more than 1m to the subject, the lens is out of focus at the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

maximum telephoto setting. When set to “ON”, you can shoot a

 

 

 

 

subject as large as possible at a distance of approx. 60 cm.

 

 

 

 

• Depending on the zoom position, the lens may go out of focus.
